Setting the standard for efficiency and community engagement, while blending professional acumen with altruism<\/p>\n
Jane Muir is a leader in the Miami legal landscape. She founded J. Muir & Associates in 2018 and has spent over 15 years building a business law practice, a strong team and a sterling reputation for client and community commitment. The firm has since grown to offices in Miami\/Coral Gables, Boynton Beach, Gainesville and Tampa, serving clients statewide.<\/p>\n
Firm Philosophy<\/p>\n
Muir & Associates\u2019 practice is rooted in effective legal support and investment in the community.<\/p>\n
Jane has recently been appointed receiver for several embattled companies in hospitality, automotive and lending across Florida, and defended an attorney sued by his former firm in arbitration, defeating claims of usurped corporate opportunities and recovering legal costs after trial.<\/p>\n
Partner Victoria Morton, an experienced community association manager and general counsel, supports non-profit associations. With the hiring of Partner Brooke Davis Bird, the firm has also expanded into Technology Law, Trademarks and IP services.<\/p>\n
Office manager Devon Schweidel\u2019s administrative team leverages technology to handle significant volume and stay ready for the rigorous civil procedures that took effect Jan. 1, 2025 \u2013 technology paired with genuine community commitment.<\/p>\n
Education and Professional Background<\/p>\n
Jane\u2019s legal career began at the University of Miami School of Law, where she was drawn to oral advocacy, competing in dozens of intramural, state, regional and national negotiation, mock trial and appellate advocacy competitions. She won \u201cBest Brief\u201d in Miami Law\u2019s Advanced Moot Court competition and earned the John F. Evans Memorial Scholarship in the prestigious Litigation Skills program. Her dedication to advocacy earned her induction into the Order of Barristers, a national honor society for top student advocates.<\/p>\n
Graduating after the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis, fate led her to establish a firm. \u201cIn my first month in business, our gross revenue was $350, which I used to pay for a $100 virtual office and business cards,\u201d Jane recounts. \u201cI started out by attending community events, and that was where I found clients.\u201d<\/p>\n
At first, she handled a peculiar assortment of cases for friends who had nowhere else to turn \u2013 \u201cI even recovered a dog from an ex-boyfriend,\u201d she says. Novel situations became an area of expertise, and satisfied clients became her biggest fans and referral sources.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As the practice grew, Jane gravitated toward representing smart, detail-oriented entrepreneurs seeking efficient results, and the firm became focused on business law, handling contracts and litigation as outside general counsel to businesses.<\/p>\n
Leadership and Awards<\/p>\n
A self-described \u201cjoiner,\u201d Jane\u2019s community service has led to executive and leadership roles. \u201cI showed up for a luncheon for the Coral Gables Bar Association, and the website was out of date,\u201d she recalls. \u201cI volunteered to fix it, so they invited me onto the board.\u201d She was quickly elevated to Treasurer, President-Elect and President for 2012-2013.<\/p>\n
Jane also volunteered for the Miami Dade Bar, formerly the Dade County Bar Association, first as a writer and editor for the Bulletin. She joined the board of directors in 2010 and backed initiatives including a website redesign, new financial controls and hiring an executive director, while serving as Treasurer, Secretary, Vice President, President-Elect and President for 2020-2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jane\u2019s tenure as President of the Miami-Dade Bar Association was marked by significant achievements, including a renovation of the association\u2019s headquarters into a co-working space for attorneys and a successful rebrand with a new name and logo.<\/p>\n
Jane and her firm have been widely recognized: the Florida Bar\u2019s 2015 Lynn Futch Most Productive Young Lawyer Award, the Miami Dade Bar\u2019s 2023 Johnnie M. Ridgely President\u2019s Award, and the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce\u2019s 2020 Businesswoman of the Year. She also recently earned lifetime membership in the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Million Dollar Advocates Forum.<\/p>\n
The firm has grown to a team of 12, including four attorneys, and has been recognized as a Law Firm Champion of Women by the Miami-Dade Chapter of the Florida Association for Women Lawyers, and as the 2023 Diamond Award Winner from the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce.<\/p>\n
